RESUMO
Objective To investigate the effects from cyclic mechanical stretch on proliferation of rheumatoid arthritis fibroblast-like synoviocytes (RA-FLSs). Methods In the experimental groups, cyclic mechanical stretch, with frequency of 1.0 Hz and magnitude of 3%, 6% and 9%, respectively, was applied to RA-FLSs for 2 h, 6 h, and 12 h. The control group remained in the same culture condition as the experimental groups, but without any mechanical stretch. After mechanical loading, the cell viability was analyzed by MTS, and its proliferation was assayed by flow cytometry. RT-PCR was used to measure the gene expression of the cell cycle regulatory factors, including CDK2, cyclinD1, cyclinE1, and P27. Results Cyclic mechanical stretch with magnitude of 6% and 9% for 6 h or 12 h significantly decreased the cell proliferation and viability in RA-FLSs (P0.05). Conclusions The effects from cyclic mechanical stretch on proliferation of RA-FLSs depend on the stretch magnitude and duration. Mechanical stretch with magnitude of 6% and 9% can inhibit RA-FLSs proliferation, which may be achieved by regulating the expression of Cyclin E1, CDK2 and P27. This study provides references for investigating the role of mechanical stimulation in pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis, as well as its prevention and treatment.
RESUMO
The mechanism of thrombus formation in living vessel wall is complex and involves a combination of blood and vessel wall properties and local flow conditions.The significance，theory and experimental tech-niques of thrombus formation in vivo were comprehensively reviewed.Particularly,the important role of signa-ling pathway and hemodynamic in thrombus formation in vivo was pointed out.The difficulty ic in vivo animal models was analyzed.Some recent new phenomena as welt as new approaches and directions worthy of in-vestigation also were summarized.

RESUMO
Objective:To value the application of two bacteria colony-PCR methods in the screening of phage antibody library. Methods:Five positive monoclonal bacterium were respectively suspended in either deionized water or 0.1% Triton X-100, and then boiled to be used as template in PCR. . The DNAs products of PCR were extracted and digested by two enzymes, and then determined by electrophoresis. Results:The inserted genes were detected in all the 5 clones after PCR and enzyme digestion .Conclusion:Bacteria colony-PCR can be used in screening positive recombinant colonies. The bacteria colony-PCR method with bacteria colonies suspended in deionized water is valuable in large scale positive recombinant bacterium screening.
